Epic Pictures Group announced that it will release festival favorite Before I Change My Mind in theaters on March 1, followed by digital platforms on March 5. The feature film debut from award-winning filmmaker Trevor Anderson premiered in competition at the 2022 Locarno Film Festival in Switzerland and was hailed as a “tender and knowing coming of age story” by IndieWire. Since then, the picture has been screened in festivals worldwide.

“Set in 1987, while the other students wonder if their new classmate is a boy or a girl, Robin forges a complicated bond with the school bully, making increasingly dangerous choices to fit in,” says the synopsis. “In the innovative screenplay, the protagonist’s gender is never disclosed. No gendered pronouns describe Robin throughout the film, and young nonbinary actor Vaughan Murrae plays the role.”

Check out the Before I Change My Mind trailer and a clip below.

"You wanna make out?" Epic Pictures has revealed an official trailer for an indie coming-of-age film titled Before I Change My Mind, the feature directorial debut of Canadian filmmaker Trevor Anderson. Set in 1987, while the other students wonder if their new classmate is a boy or a girl, Robin forges a complicated bond with the school bully, making increasingly dangerous choices to fit in. In this innovative screenplay, the main character's gender is never disclosed, and the role is played by a non-binary actor. The film stars Vaughan Murrae as Robin, Dominic Lippa, Lacey Oake, Matthew Rankin, & Shannon Blanchet. This originally premiered at the 2022 Locarno Film Festival a few years back, playing at a number of other festivals in 2022 and 2023. It's finally getting released this year in theaters and on VOD. "Bringing Before I Change My Mind to the screen is not just about representation; it's about celebrating the diverse narratives that shape our world," Epic Pictures states. Looks like it has some nice style and an important story to tell.

Here's the offiical trailer (+ poster) for Trevor Anderson's Before I Change My Mind, from YouTube:

"When I was a teenager in Canada in the 1980s, I was often asked, 'Are you a boy or a girl?' I wish I could've let that question hang in the air unanswered, like Robin does in the film. It was a time when kids like me – or like our hero Robin – wouldn't have words like nonbinary or genderqueer to describe our genders. We'd know we were somehow different and that difference would be palpable to those around us, but because we didn't have language to describe it, we never talked about it – and we still had to survive middle school and answer more pressing questions, like: 'Who do I like?' 'Do they like me back?' 'What kind of person am I?' 'Where do I fit in?'" —Director Trevor Anderson
